Trey Palmer's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Trey Palmer caught one of his two targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in the Wild Card victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night. The rookie took a short pass and took it all the way to the end zone, opening a 25-9 lead for Tampa Bay late in the third quarter. The sixth-rounder from Nebraska posted just 39 receptions for 385 yards and three scores during the regular season, so he remains a touchdown-or-bust DFS option in a favorable matchup with the Detroit Lions in the NFC Divisional Round.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Trey Palmer has seen an increased involvement in the offense over the last few weeks. In fact, Palmer has hauled in 10 of his 13 targets over the last three games. During that span, Palmer has posted two games with over 40 receiving yards and scored one touchdown. The rookie wideout has moved his way up in the pecking order, but remains the third option in the passing game. The expectation is that Palmer will see a handful of chances this weekend. However, he remains a shaky option for DFS contests given that he's the third option in the passing game.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Trey Palmer (hip) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after practicing every day this past week. The rookie seems to have emerged as Tampa Bay's No. 3 wide receiver behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, especially after totaling 84 yards and one touchdown while playing 73 percent of offensive snaps in Week 17. He's an appealing dynasty stash but can be left on waivers for the final week of the season in redraft leagues.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie wide receiver Trey Palmer (hip) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable to play in Sunday's Week 18 regular season finale against the Carolina Panthers. The 22-year-old will most likely play in a must-win game for the Buccaneers to win the NFC South title, but he might need to prove he's healthy during a pre-game workout on Sunday first. If he suits up, Palmer will continue to work behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin in the receiving pecking order, making it hard for him to produce fantasy relevant numbers. Palmer hasn't been bad in his first NFL season, catching 37 passes for 375 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games, but fantasy managers can probably do better when searching for a flex play in Week 18. If he doesn't play, Deven Thompkins would likely serve as Tampa's No. 3 wideout.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Trey Palmer (hip) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice session. This marks back-to-back days that Palmer has been able to get through a limited practice. This is a bad time for Palmer to get injured with his role starting to expand in the offense. Over the last two weeks, Palmer has eight receptions for over 120 yards. Despite that, Palmer remains a the third option in this offense behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. That being said, both Evans and Godwin would likely see an even bigger target share if Palmer was to sit out in Week 18.
